I attempted to fix this.  I decided that the unmasked areas did not need "a" so I zeroed it.

Killing the A channel risks creating out of gamut colors...the Deepest Blue in the sky is very close to out of Gamut...RGB might not be able to reproduce the blue you have in the image...it might but it will be close.

Also when you zero out the A you remove any reds that might be in the image.  Use care when doing this...you might lose some depth or shape that the reds are bringing to the details...

But I hoped that the mask was good enough so that a would not be needed there.  Good point.
